DnD Species: Goliaths

In this episode of Roll for Lore, we climb into the rugged, high-altitude world of the Goliaths, one of Dungeons & Dragons’ most physically imposing and spiritually grounded peoples. Born among the highest mountains and harshest climates, Goliaths embody the ideals of strength, endurance, and self-reliance, living by a code where survival and honor go hand in hand. We trace their origins in D&D—first appearing in Races of Stone for 3.5 Edition—explore their culture of competition and community, and uncover their ties to the ancient bloodlines of giants and the Ordning. From their stone-carved traditions to their wandering spirits, Goliaths stand as living testaments to nature’s raw power and the will to rise above it. Whether you’re building a stoic warrior or just fascinated by the lore of mountain-born heroes, this episode is your guide to the mighty Goliaths of D&D.
